This mixed-use development contains a new dance studio, office, café showroom and a light industrial storage facility. The prominent building on the site is the Dance studio, designed to include 4 dance studios, with facilities located to the rear of the building.
The function of the building and room requirements has by and large determined the form. With the brief requiring two 10x10m studios and two 13x13m studios along with additional facilities we wanted to accentuate this by placing the larger studios above the smaller studios and cantilevering out at the front. This allowed us to gain the extra space for the changing rooms and ancillary spaces needed for the building to the rear of the studios.
